But behind the pomp and pageantry, Solyndra was rotting inside, hemorrhaging cash so quickly that within weeks of Mr. Obama’s visit, the company canceled plans to offer shares to the public. Barely a year later, Solyndra has become one of the administration’s most costly fumbles after the company declared bankruptcy, laid off 1,100 workers and was raided by F.B.I. agents seeking evidence of possible fraud.

As much as 5% to 10% of your electricity usage might be from electronic devices that are left plugged in. Cell phone chargers, computers, printers, battery-powered tools, and other devices can drain electricity even when they appear to be off. Check out the very cute video that explains the details.

I have known for years that the problem with microwaved anything is not the radiation people used to worry about, It’s how it corrupts the DNA in the food so the body can not recognize it. So the body wraps it in fat cells to protect itself from the dead food or it eliminates it fast.

I attended the West Hollywood General Plan 2035 meeting on 7/11/10 in the West Hollywood auditorium.
In my opinion, the General Plan’s outline pays lip service to the level of water & power conservation required by Weho’s level of growth during the General Plan. The General Plan seems NOT to take into account the loss of 20-30% of water in our public holding areas nor are we capable of getting any more power into California, because we are unable to load up more power through Path 15.
